    This is the weirdest search engine my friend showed me:

    http://www.msdewey.ca/

    You search for something and she talks to you!

    It also recognizes certain phrases, so if you try to "talk dirty" to her, she will give you a nice tongue lashing... which is pretty funny.

    Ms Dewey. Oh, Yes, She is easily annoyed I think. That site was also voted one of the years worst sites.... on somebodys list. I forgot now. She is not very helpful, eh?

    Very nice concept, though it certainly needs improving.
    I searched for stocks and Ms Dewey asked me if "I'm interested in art". :D

    It's nice and entertaining. I could see myself using it (for fun). We could be seeing a glimpse of the future of SEs here.

    Lets hope the future SEs do not look like this! Not effective for searching at all unless she hand picks out the best sites for your searches :p
